Chateau Rauzan Segla 2005Margaux
owc
Bottle (12)"One of the most beautiful Rauzan-Seglas made in decades, this
blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest primarily Merlot and
tiny dollops of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot exhibits a gorgeous
perfume of spring flowers, subtle mint, black cherries, black
currants, licorice, and a hint of new oak. It offers medium to full
body, sweet tannins, and a layered mouthfeel that builds
incrementally to a sensational finish. Although this beauty is
performing well, it remains a decade away from its plateau of
maturity. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2030+." (94pts Robert Parker,
Wine Advocate #176, April 2008)
